Only if you feel compelled. Paypal works. My support of this project is a hobby. The project itself is GPL. We can't sell. We give freely (my wife wonders why :)).

For those wondering, I'm still here, but lost in the shadows. Yearning for less bugs. Who want's a Cacti 1.3/2.0? Streams anyone?

While I will not refuse a donation/gift... That's not why I do this. :)

Same, but I do enjoy things like Babylon 5 DVD's and anything else (Stargate SG-1...) SciFi'ish.

exactly. you don' do it for the money if not we'd have pop up paypal ads, but perhaps in the donation section of the website, you might each have a short description of what you each do, and a link to your own amazon wish list.


think about it.
